Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- 2
In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, maple syrup, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and olive oil to make the marinade.
- 3
Add the watermelon peel strips to the marinade and toss until well-coated. Let it marinate for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 4
Place the marinated watermelon peel strips in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded.
- 5
Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping the strips halfway through the cooking time to ensure they cook evenly and become crispy.
- 6
Keep an eye on them towards the end to prevent burning, as cooking time may vary based on the air fryer model.
- 7
Once the watermelon peel strips are crispy and slightly browned, remove them from the air fryer.
- 8
Allow the Watermelon Peel Bacon to cool slightly before serving as a crispy and flavorful snack or a crunchy topping for salads, sandwiches, or any dish in need of a savory, smoky kick.
